They think it’s all over....it soon will be!

All 71 EFL clubs are meeting remotely from 10.30am and they will first listen to several proposals on how to settle the current campaign before voting on each one, if necessary.

It’s long odds on that League One clubs will vote to curtail the season and decide final placings on a points-per-game average. Posh would drop out of the play-off places in this scenario.

Posh will vote to continue the season and if that fails they will support Tranmere’s proposal to apply a modified points per game solution which would involve an eight-team play-off including Posh.

EFL chairman Rick Parry will host the meeting with a representative of each club expected to attend. Posh will be represented by Darragh MacAnthony.

There could be as many as three rounds of voting

Vote 1

The first vote will see clubs decide the framework upon which seasons will be decided if they are curtailed.

Here, clubs will vote on the EFL’s own proposal which would see standings, plus promotion and relegation, decided on an unweighted points-per-game basis. The play-offs in each division will take place as usual and should not be extended.

Vote 2

Once the proposal mentioned above is passed, as is widely expected, clubs can then vote on a number of potential amendments to the chosen framework. These are:

The Barnsley Proposal – No club should be relegated in a division that fails to fulfill its fixtures.

The Tranmere Proposal – Tables will be decided on unweighted points-per-game, but with a ‘margin for error’ formula applied. Clubs will then be given a ‘Final Points Range’ which would determine whether they are promoted, relegated or take part in an extended play-off competition.

The Lincoln City amendment – Any points deductions awarded to clubs will be deducted after the points-per-game calculation is made, rather than applied as part of the calculation.

The Stevenage amendment – No club should be relegated from League Two if clubs opt to curtail the fourth tier season.

The Ipswich amendment – Should the League One season be ended, clubs should be able to vote on alternative play-off options.

Vote 3

After a framework is established for finishing the season, individual leagues can hold a vote to determine whether their seasons are curtailed or continued.

In League One, it is widely expected that the season will be finished.

This vote may take place on Tuesday, but could take place later in the week if clubs wish to take stock of the finalised framework before casting their vote.

League Two, of course, have already voted to curtail their season while the Championship are preparing for a June 20 restart.

A majority of clubs (51 per cent) will need to vote for any one proposal for it to be passed.

In addition, a majority of Championship clubs will also need to agree to any framework for it to be incorporated into the EFL rules.

In terms of individual divisions, the EFL state that at least 51 per cent of clubs must vote for a season to be curtailed in order for play to be halted. It’s worth noting that, unlike the vote on the EFL framework, the decision to end the third tier is down to the 23 clubs in that division alone – the Championship clubs do not receive a veto as they do with other votes.

The results are expected to be formally announced tomorrow (JUne 10), but it’s likely clubs, and everyone else because of leaks, will know this afternoon.
